For 23 years this has been my dream: for a generation of learners who turn to their screens for answers, I want to put the very best information at their fingertips. We stand with Wikipedians, librarians and creators to make sure there is enduring access to the world’s most trustworthy knowledge. We’re dedicated to reader privacy so we never track you.

Lisl Weil, a dancer who often performed in New York with friend Tommy Scherman and his Little Orchestra Society, was also a splendid charcoal artist. Here, accompanied by Sherman’s musical interpretation of the Paul Dukas classic, she soars across the screen, drawing abstract characters on a massive blank board in a timeless, fun film that juxtaposes wonderfully with the better-known Disney treatment in 'Fantasia.'

Art + Music = Genius
A wonderful piece that is still relevant despite the age. Using the tone-poem "Sorcerer's Apprentice" as the basis, charcoal art is created in real-time to the music. It really helps that the artist is a dancer as well, since she moves in time to the music, giving the art a real dynamism. The art style is a little dated (it reminds me of the late 50s/early 60s UPA minimalist school), but the music and the way it is created help transcend that.
